Belforte, via Roma

Belforte bookstore, Via Roma, Livorno
A few weeks ago we read on its shutters that the Belforte Bookstore had moved to a new location in Via Roma. We have just visited the new shop, which is simply lovely: small, but creatively furnished and decorated.

Considered that it opened early last month the bookstore is understandably understocked, but all the important stuff is already on the shelves. Anyway, looking around you will not surely get bored.

There is also a small stage, a piano is coming soon, and the place also hosts local cultural events almost daily. We will see something more in a few days.

  4. What a lovely place!
    I love bookshops, and I sometimes work in one. This is a place I would love to take a good look and those BIG books ..........might have something really lovely art or pictures.

    I like the idea of independent bookshops, where they have guests and artists coming.

    Enjoy the place!

  8. Looks like place where I could spend a lot of time, but I have to admit to buying all of my books online these days.

  9. I like the cozy feel of this shop. It makes me want to curl up in an easy chair with a book.
